I really enjoyed Mew Haven Cafe. I had been to two other cat cafes and found them to be OK, but this spot is, by far, my favorite. I cannot remember the person at the counter's name, but I believe she is the manager and she is fantastic! Very personable, kind, and informative. You can tell that she really enjoys being at the cafe, interacting with people, helping the cafe thrive, and overall committed to the cause. My boyfriend and I had a mocha and a cappuccino and both were good. I bought some goodies from the front area. They pack a lot into a small space as far as the merch is concerned. I wish they had more t-shirts, hoodies, wearables, but maybe they will consider that in the future. There are bits and bobs like pins, stickers, cat nip sticks, postcards, etc. You check-in at the front and then you go around to the side door(which you close before entering into the inner door to avoid any cats escaping) and then you get to lounge with cats. Some were sleeping, some were walking around, some were sassy, some were social. They are cats. Let them come to you. I was chosen by a beautiful white cat named Valentina, who slept on me the whole time. Bliss. The cat area was clean, didn`t smell bad, the employee in there was friendly, and I felt comfortable the whole time I was in there. The time went quick and I wanted to take the baby, but alas, I came from out of town. I hope to return next time I`m in the MEW Haven area. One thing I will note is that some of the cats need some closer attention as far as crusty eyes and some crusts on their heads. May be flear related, or infection. None were terrible, but I am a foster and resident cat mom and I am picky about the cats being clean and feeling their best. Overall, though, the cats seem happy and this is a great place.

We had a great visit yesterday! Very clean & fresh-smelling facility with abundant sleeping/perching spots for the cats. We appreciated the details about interaction preferences & the backstory of each cat. Also heartening to hear that the cats are adopted fairly quickly & most don't stay too long. Seamless booking & entry process as well.

Never been to a cat cafe and it was a great experience. Took a friend's child (7 years old) who can't have a cat due to household members' allergies, so she found this really fun. She liked reading about the cats on the profile wall and matching them up to the cats running around. There are lots of toys provided to entertain the cats with. The cats are all quite approachable and inquisitive. If you weren't a cat lover before, you will be after you leave. The place was also clean and so were the cats. :-) The little store has really cute items to buy as well! I also found the pricing very reasonable, allowing for multiple visits. Would definitely go back!

Since it has been two weeks since I have seen my babies and I still have one more week to go I searched for a cat cafe and found Mew Haven. This place was very nice. The cat area was very clean and had lots of different activities and spots for the cats. They had some very friendly cats. Several even found a home in someone's lap for their visit. Next time you are looking for something fun to do or even looking for a new fur friend check this place out.

What's better than coffee...coffee with cats! Whether you're looking to adopt, study alongside friendly cats or visit to become more comfortable with cats, it's a place worth stopping in! The staff at Mew Haven help find the connection between the cats and the people by bringing them together based on each of their personalities. The cafe (coffee) side is open daily for walk-in orders but you'll need to reserve tickets in advance to hangout with the cats. For their cafe, a highlight is their year round Mr. Kitty Pumpkin Spice Latte or their Ginger Cat Latte (ginger tea and steamed milk). They also offer a variety of baked goods (including GF and Vegan ones). A perk to their ice coffees in the summer are their coffee ice cubes. I did enjoy that they had other non-coffee drinks on their menus to suit those of all ages and preferences. Grab a few goodies too for you friends or cats at home in their café area with some items to purchase.

10/10, please let me keep Tiffany and Mouse. Beautiful cats and great hot chocolate and great service. Most cats were nice. I will come back for Tiffany when I can, if she's still here. Tell Tiffany I miss her. Mew Haven, more like Mew Heaven. Definitely would recommend this to anyone who likes cats

#9 in my NEW ENGLAND & NY COFFEE SHOP SERIES Can you believe New Haven has a cat cafe?! And you can adopt these little cuties too! A fantastic business that adopts kitties from different shelters from all over CT. For around $20 you can make a reservation and have play time with cats for an hour. You can also order drinks which they bring over to you in the play area. My partner and I got the Valentine's day package which came with an hour with the kitties and free drinks. I got the red velvet latte and he got the ginger cat, both of them weren't very good too be honest. But they are a good price and the theming is cute. Tip: make a reservation for earlier in the day so the kitties won't be too tired or overstimulated
